Stuff from last year...

I have so many fun Christmas memory photos to share..

Instead of a l o n g Christmas post.. Maybe I'll do several short ones..

or maybe this one will be the last one..

It probably mainly depends on what i feel like doing.. :)

Christmas with just our little family of four was grand.

We (my husband and I) are like little kids when it comes to Christmas..

We couldn't wait till Christmas eve. to open gifts, so we dove into them Christmas Eve. Eve....

The excitement ran high before gifts were opened...

And below is an after shot!!!

 

We went to my home stomping grounds for a week.. it twas quite lovely.. Except for the times of missing my older sister and her family.. (they are missionaries in Canada and couldn't make this year)

We had times of just sitting around and being sad-

 

I have a mom, who will be quite horrified that i put these on. :)
We made so many memories while taking these, trust me!

My lil brother that is Five year younger has a birthday every year on New Year's eve..... This year we (my sis and i) decorated a cake.. 

Then my parents and i bombarded the Youth New Year's Party.. with the cake and some balloons.

We dropped of the stuff.. Turned around and headed home.

And i was in bed by 11:50..

Heard the shots and fireworks when the new year came in...

Yes, i am boring like that.

The maker's of the Mac book cake...

It was fun..

Never made a Mac book Cake before..

Never actually used fondant before...

Or edible spray paint..

Over all it went well..

And i think i might go into the business of making Mac book cakes.. 

What do you think...?

Oh, only if my little sister is there whipping up the icing for me... ;)

  

Above we have the birthday man.. He is very techy and somehow how the brains went to the little brother.. while the sister 5 yrs older has quite a bit not there...:) 

Yes, I am the sister five years older.

Oh and below was our little family's Cozy Christmas eve. supper... 

It felt cozier then it looks..

The blinds, the lights??

I don't know about you..but..

I'm seeing some redneckness from here..

The kids were impressed!! 

And hubby could have cared less,

I believe his favorite companion that night was a box of tissues

and some Dayquil of some sort..

And that's where i am ending today..

Good day to you and yours.
